Which part of a river would have animals with very muscular bodies and adaptations that let survive in turbulent water? Source z
lidiya [134]
The part of a river that would have animals with muscular bodies and adaptations that let survive in turbulent water is in the transition zone, the mid-transition zone to be precise. Water at the source zone possesses a lot of potential energy and as it flows from the upper reaches the potential energy is turned into kinetic energy when the course of the river begins to gradually level out and this translates into increase in velocity. By the time river water reaches the middle of the transition zone, most of the potential energy would have been turned into kinetic energy and thus water velocity would be quite high here. Animals living here would develop muscles because of constantly fighting against the strong current to avoid being swept downstream.

In this problem, you will calculate the location of the center of mass for the Earth-Moon system, and then you will calculate th
Radda [10]

Answer:

a) Option D is correct.

The center of mass between the Eartg and the moon is inside the Earth.

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of the moon = (7.35×10²²) kg

Mass of the Earth = (6.00×10²⁴) kg

Mass of the Sun = (2.00×10³⁰) kg

Distance between the Earth and the moon = (3.80×10⁵) km

Distance between the Earth and the Sun = (1.50×10⁸) km

With the assumption that all.of the bodies being considered are on the same straight line on the x-axis,

Note that Centre of mass is given as

C.M = (Σmx)/(Σm)

For the Earth-moon system, let the earth be x=0, then the moon is at x = (3.80 × 10 5) km away.

C.M = (Σmx)/(Σm)

Σmx = (6.00×10²⁴)) × (0) + (7.35×10²²) × (3.80×10⁵) = (2.793 × 10²⁸) kg.km

Σm = (6.00×10²⁴) + (7.35×10²²) = (6.0735 × 10²⁴) kg

CM = (2.793 × 10²⁸) ÷ (6.0735 × 10²⁴)

CM = (4.60 × 10³) km = 4600 km

This means the centre of mass is 4600 km from the Earth.

The Earth's radius = 6378 km

Hence, the centre if mass is inside the Earth.

Hope this Helps!!!

One of the most efficient engines built so far has the following characteristics: combustion chamber temperature = 1900°C, exhau
suter [353]

Answer:

actual efficiency is  47.78 %

Carnot efficiency  is 67.65 %

power output is 5.20 × 10^3 hp

Explanation:

given data

temperature = 1900°C = 1900+ 273 K = 2173 K

exhaust temperature = 430°C = 430 + 273 K = 703 K

fuel = 7.0 × 10^9 cal

work = 1.4 × 10^10 J

to find out

actual efficiency  and Carnot efficiency and power output of engine

solution

first we find actual efficiency that is = work / heat input

put the value and

input energy  = 7.0 × 10^9 cal  (4.184 J/1 cal)  = 29.29 × 10^9 J

actual efficiency  =  1.4 × 10^10 / ( 29.29 × 10^9 )

actual efficiency  =  0.4778

actual efficiency is  47.78 %

and

Carnot efficiency  is = 1 - ( 703 / 2173 )

so Carnot efficiency  is  = 0.67648

Carnot efficiency  is 67.65 %

and

power output  = work / time

power output  =  1.4 × 10^10 / 3600 sec

power output = 3.88 × 10^6 W

power output = 3.88 × 10^6 W / 746 hp

so power output is 5.20 × 10^3 hp

An ice skater accelerates backward for 5.0 second to final speed of 12m/s. If the acceleration backward was at a a rate of 1.5m/
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Initial velocity, U = 4.5m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Final velocity, v = 12m/s

Time, t = 5 seconds

Acceleration, a = 1.5m/s²

To find the initial velocity, we would use the first equation of motion.

V = U + at

Where;

V is the final velocity.

U is the initial velocity.

a is the acceleration.

t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

12 = U + 1.5*5

12 = U + 7.5

U = 12 - 7.5

Initial velocity, U = 4.5m/s
